but of course! i had the pleasure of seeing it on Broadway on a school
trip in 1982. by then, Linda Ronstadt, Rex Smith and Estelle Parsons
had been replaced by Maureen McGovern, Patrick Cassidy & Kate Ballard,
respectively. it was a joy! (i also got to see Evita on that trip, tho
it was a Wednesday night, so Patti Lupone had the evening off!)
the parody lyrics i quoted above are from the "Pirates of Penzance
Sequence" from the album Forbidden Broadway, Volume 1.
as r:
poor warb'ling star
can't sing above an a nat'ral
try as i might
i crack ev'ry night
poor warb'ling star
poor warb'ling star
if i keep clutching my cleavage
i'm at my best
singing in jest
and simply faking the rest.
altho i also like:
i'll sing a new song tomorrow
but til tomorrow then tomorrow
will have to do
i'll learn a new song tomorrow
but you'll have to sit there in your sorrow
til i do!
tomorrow! tomorrow!
is my favorite show tune
i sing it 4 times a day
redundant! redundant!
this song is redundant,
i'll sing it until i grow!
